Through leadership mankind has the capacity to enhance or irrevocably debase his environment thereby affecting the quality of life on the planet for many generations to come. Van Maurik, 2001
Leadership; the 21st Century panacea? It is argued that in this changing global environment, leadership holds the answer not only to the success of individuals and organisations but also sectors, regions, nations. Richard Bolden, 2004
The NHS in Scotland needs to change. Not because it is in a crisis as some would have us believe – it is not; but because Scotland’s health care needs are changing and we need to act now to ensure we are ready to meet the future challenges Prof. David Kerr (2005)
The most important policy issue facing European Governments over the next 50 years is how to cope with ageing populations….For Scotland the future is now…its population is ageing faster and dying quicker than any other industrialised nation Scotland the Grave (2003)
The biggest challenges we face – health improvement; eradicating poverty; environmental threats; creating a dynamic and entrepreneurial culture and regenerating our most deprived communities … High performance is not only dependent on good systems. It needs strong, visible and dynamic leadership Transforming Public Services (2006)
Developing and implementing radical service strategies to improve health and healthcare delivery • Delivering excellence in service quality, through staff who are ‘fit for purpose’ • Using resources wisely and accounting for their impact • Aligning services needs and the current and future workforce
Moving from a focus on institutions to a focus on networks and the continuum of patient care • Working more effectively in partnership • Developing effective single- system arrangements and regional planning processes- which also support career management • Creating an infectious ‘can do ‘ culture Delivery through Leadership (2005)
Current view Geared towards acute conditions Hospital centred Doctor dependent Episodic care Disjointed care Reactive care Patient as passive recipient Self care infrequent Carers undervalued Low tech Evolving model Geared to long term conditions Embedded in communities Team based Continuous care Integrated care Preventative care Patient as partner Self care encouraged Carers supported as partners High tech New ways of delivering care
Challenges facing healthcare leaders • Be innovative but avoid mistakes • Think long term but deliver results now • Cut costs but improve morale • Reduce staff numbers but develop team work • Be flexible but respect the rules • Collaborate but compete • Decentralise butretain control • Specialise butbe opportunistic • Go for low cost butensure high quality

Group work questions • What are the key leadership challenges that face you in relation to service delivery and improvement? • How is your organisation currently addressing these challenges? • What are the gaps? • What more needs to be done nationally / regionally/ locally? • How can we demonstrate that investment in leadership development is an investment in high quality patient care? • How can leaders from different professions / sectors work together to influence this agenda? • How can we ensure that we have effective leadership at every level?
